Okay, understood. I again recommend Autohotkey, especially
for using a laptop keyboard. In it, I have a little code to make the
laptop keyboard usable in terms of (mine) having no page up/down
and dedicated home/end keys. When I'm using the Mac laptop's keyboard, I
hit ctrl-shift-m and it's all configured. When I have my external
keyboard, I hit it again and it toggles back to normal.
http://www.autohotkey.com/I agree that that's the
solution for home, but the locations of the serious work I have been
trying to do have been airplanes, hotel rooms, airports, ...

Get yourself an external keyboard. And an external monitor. The
laptop
is only for the innards. (I assume you're doing the serious work at
home
or in your office, not while on the road.)
